Why Did Jesus Only Go to Israel? Matthew 10:5-6 Explained

B29L4 Did you know Jesus commanded His disciples not to go to the Gentiles? In Matthew 10:5-6, He sent them only to the lost sheep of Israel. This 1 Corinthians 15 Bible study reveals why — and what it means for you today. This verse-by-verse study traces God's plan from the Abrahamic Covenant through Israel's calling as a kingdom of priests. Les walks through Isaiah 49:6, where God declares Israel will be a light to the Gentiles, and Isaiah 2:1-4, where all nations flow to Jerusalem. He examines Zechariah 8:20-23, showing how Gentiles would cling to the Jews saying "We will go with you." The study moves to Ephesians 2:11-12, where Paul reminds Gentile believers they were once aliens from Israel, without hope and without God. Les explains how Israel's rejection opened the door for Paul to take the Gospel to the Gentiles, and how Satan has relentlessly opposed God's plan through Israel. 📖 Key Topics Covered: • Why Jesus only ministered to Israel — Matthew 10:5-6 explained • The three resurrections of the just from 1 Corinthians 15:23 • Israel as a kingdom of priests and a light to the Gentiles — Isaiah 49:6 • Gentiles were aliens from the commonwealth of Israel — Ephesians 2:11-12 • The riot in Acts 22 when Paul spoke the word "Gentiles" • How the Abrahamic Covenant promised all families blessed through Messiah • Satan's ongoing attack on Israel throughout history and today 1 Corinthians 15 resurrection explained, Israel as light to Gentiles Isaiah 49, Ephesians 2:11-12 verse by verse, Matthew 10:5-6 Jesus sent to Israel only, Zechariah 8 prophecy, Abrahamic Covenant explained, Satan opposing Israel Bible study.
